Good advice from R. David. In addition, you'll find the help command useful:

>>> help(''.strip)
Help on built-in function strip:

strip(...)
    S.strip([chars]) -> string or unicode
    
    Return a copy of the string S with leading and trailing
    whitespace removed.
    If chars is given and not None, remove characters in chars instead.
    If chars is unicode, S will be converted to unicode before stripping
